'13 Ram 2500 4x Issues.

[WhiteExpress]

Rammers!

Last night I when I got in my truck, I noticed that the dash lights on my 4x4 switch weren't on. Made me wonder...

1: Do the 2 Hi, 4Hi and 4 Lo lettering have lights?
I don't honestly know, it just seems like everything else is lit, don't know why this would not be.

Now, the unnerving part, the damned switch ain't working! Turn it to 4 Hi, nothing, no dash light, no clunk, no 4 wd. slipped it into neutral, no 4 Lo either.
It's like my truck just doesn't recognize that it exists.

The kicker to me, is like a week ago, when I put the E-fan on, I used 4 Lo to crawl up my front steps to burp the cooling system. Only thing I've done since then is change the throttle boost on my Trinity.

After checking for the obvious things (blown fuse?) I'll return it back to stock tune. *sigh* I dislike this.

So, naturally, just to mess with me, everything is working A-OK today.

1: Yes, they do light up
2: Beats the hell out of me. Gremlins?

+1 for gremlins.

during last winter, I must have remote started the truck 100+ times. Twice, when I turned the truck off, the headlights would not turn off and I'd hear the warning chime when I opened the door..the dial was in "off" position. The only way to turn them off was to remote start it again and turn it off. Key start and turn off would not do anything.

..I don't' even..no electrical or mechanical problems otherwise.

All the electronics on these trucks worry me. Luckily mine hasn't had any "gremlins"

Last night I left my truck in 4 auto when I shut it off. This morning, the dash said 4 auto, but the lights on the selector buttons were off and I couldn't change to 2wd. Stopped for coffee and when I restarted the truck, lights and control were back on. I took a video in case in keeps popping up.

It's 'comforting' knowing I'm not alone, but also aggravating as hell.
Need to find a nice 2G.
